Description

In this course, you will learn:


The fundamental concepts every electrician must know to perform an installation correctly.


Electricity is dangerous; you will learn about the protective devices required for an electrical installation, how they work, and the criteria for selecting them.


Through two workshop-style sections—and with my guidance—you will carry out hands-on exercises at home. These will help you learn the correct way to take basic electrical measurements relevant to installations and familiarize yourself with various devices used in residential wiring, such as standard switches, two-way switches, reversing switches, sensors, and timers.


You will learn about the different types of plans required for an electrical installation and gain the ability to interpret them.


You will learn what an electrical service entrance is and the criteria for installing it, as well as the structure of main distribution panels—which house all the necessary protective devices for the installation.


You will be introduced to the essential tools needed for electrical installation work and learn how to work safely on a job site.
